The Ren Shape family boards comprises
16 different products for the CNC-machining of dimensionally stable,
highly accurate models, fixtures, foundry patterns, and tooling.
Each product is the line exhibits its own unique combination of
physical characteristics, including varied densities, flexural,
tensile and compressive strengths, glass transition temperatures,
and coefficients of thermal expansion. And, all of the Ren
Shape boards produce outstanding surface finishes and edge definitions.

Styling/Modeling
Boards

5120
Styling Board

A
very low-density (15 pounds per cubic foot) polyurethane board with
a Shore 28D hardness. Formulated for machining extremely lightweight
styling models that exhibit an outstanding surface finish for this
low density.

350
Styling Board

An
economical, lightweight polyurethane board for milling precise styling
and sight models, verifying CAD designs and making temporary models
and tooling aids. Provides a Shore 30-35D hardness and a good
surface finish.

440
Styling Board

A
low-density polyurethane board for the production of temporary master
models, styling models and prototypes, and visual models.
Exhibits a Shore 58D hardness and produces a smooth surface finish
with good edge definition.

5440
Modeling Board

A
moderately low density polyurethane board that allows fast CNC machining
and hand working of permanent or temporary master models, as well
as styling or visual models. Excellent edge definition.

A
low-density epoxy board for production of models and low-temperature
cure prepreg tools that can withstand exposure to temperatures up
to 140°F (60°C). Holds close tolerances well defined edges
and exhibits good tensile and compressive strength.

460
Modeling Board

A
higher-density precision modeling board, the material also exhibits
a lower coefficient of thermal expansion than other modeling materials
for enhanced dimensional stability over a broader temperature range.
Exhibits excellent accuracy and edge definition.

A
high-density, premium-quality polyurethane board that is designed
for CNC-machining production fixtures capable of withstanding extended
use and handling. Maintains its dimensional stability even
when exposed to temperature and humidity extremes. Also features
high compressive and impact strength and good wear resistance.
Useful for machining mandrels for making nickel electroform shells.

471
Fixture Board

A
lower-density polyurethane board for machining fixtures produced
for light to medium use. Offers good dimensional stability
and wear resistance.

472
Fixture Board

A
polyurethane board for machining durable checking and assembly fixtures.
Combines light weight with good toughness, flexural strength and
abrasion resistance to withstand demanding production environments.

550
Intermediate-Temperature Board

A
heat-resistant polyurethane board for forming large, dimensionally
accurate models and curing tools that can withstand temperatures
up to 200°F (93°C). Features good flexural, tensile and compressive
strength.

5005
Intermediate-Temperature Board

A
low-density epoxy board for building 250°F (121°C) master models,
prepreg lay-up tools and for other heat-resistant applications.
Exhibits a low coefficient of thermal expansion for good accuracy
and dimensional stability.

5008
Intermediate-Temperature Board

A
low-density epoxy designed for tooling use up to 250°F (121°C) for
building master models and low and medium-temperature curing prepregs.
Low coefficient of thermal expansion of 18 x 10-6 in/in/°F
produces outstanding accuracy and dimensional stability

5010
Tooling Board

This
high-temperature, low-density board for molds offers a combination
of excellent machinability, and much higher glass transition temperature
than more conventional tooling boards.

5166
Metalforming Board

A
tough, durable board for machining dies for drawing, stretch forming
and low pressure hydroforming. Can be machined at high feed
rates and produces dies with excellent impact and wear resistance,
high flexural modulus and good compressive strength. A companion
castable version, RP 6470, is also available.

A
polymer board for the fast machining of injection molds, resin transfer
molds, vacuum form molds and other tooling. Features the excellent
temperature, abrasion and chemical resistance needed to mold hundreds
of accurate thermoplastic parts.
